Porsche GT3 gets owned by GT40 in new Car and Driver. The GT40 actually owns the GT3 and the Ferrari 360 .....ha ha ha. Nice work Ford. Now if they would just quit showing the GT40 with the ugly @ss white racing stripe.

Not only are those white racing stripes part of its racing heritage, IMO it looks the part.

Few cars can get away with them without looking tacky and the GT(yes the 40 has been dropped) is one of them.

Why?...IT'S EARNED ITS STRIPES.

A Ford GT is a GT40 by any other name. Many assume a Ford GT = "Mustang GT" so when I write about the Ford GT I will continue to call it the Ford GT 40 which is what it's lineage represents it to be......
